The $5 Dinner Mom Cookbook Giveaway
January 8, 2010 | Filed Under Books | 588 Comments
Updated to add: This giveaway is now closed. The two winners are Tracy and Alaina!
This past week I made two recipes from the newly released $5 Dinner Mom Cookbook written by Erin of $5 Dinners. I made the Asian Chicken Wraps and Beef Roast and Potatoes. They were both VERY easy to prepare and delicious. Sure wish I’d remembered to take pictures for you.
The unique thing about Erin’s cookbook though is that out of the 200 recipes included every one of them was made for $5 or less. That’s quite a feet. And while I’m not sure I could match the prices she is able to achieve in her hometown of Dayton, Ohio, since I live up here in Northern Canada where groceries are pretty expensive, I do like that she breaks down the cost of each ingredient so you know exactly how she got to her total.
As you would expect the ingredients are straight forward and not fancy schmancy. I’m not a fancy girl by any stretch of the imagination and definitely don’t have the time to be running all over town trying to find something I can’t even pronounce that is for sure.
Another fabulous take away of the $5 Dinner Mom Cookbook, that I was really impressed with, are the many pages of how-to information at the beginning about strategic grocery shopping, couponing and meal planning. Everything you need to know about these topics is detailed for you in plain English so you can be saving money in no time. Erin does a great job of breaking it all down for you step by step so you too can be a savvy supermarket shopper.
My only disappointment about this cookbook is that each recipe does not include a picture. However several pictures are included in the middle of the book. I do understand though that it’s done this way in order to keep costs down. The $5 Dinner Mom Cookbook is currently available on Amazon for only $10.19.
I have TWO copies to giveaway to two of my readers. To enter just leave a comment on this post telling me what your favorite comfort food is?
Giveaway closes Tuesday, January 12th at 12:00 pm PST.

My moms chicken and rice with canned cranberry (the jellied kind). I can’t quit make like she does.
Bobbi on January 8th, 2010 1:26 pm
My comfort food changes with season and depends on if I am pregnant or not.
In the winter my comfort food is lasagna, in the spring it is grilled foods like hamburgers, hotdogs and chicken with coleslaw, in the summer it is spinach strawberry salad with strawberries that have been freshly picked and in the fall I love sheppards pie. When I am pregnant I seem to have some sort of adversion to red meat, sometimes I can eat it, but usually not and tend to bulk up my protein intake with more chicken and eggs (especially hard boiled, warm with toast and jam or cool with salads, sandwhiches, or as a snack.)
*I couldn’t have lied and made it easy…LOL!

Homemade Mac ‘n Cheese! Ooh, with ice cold Dr. Pepper! It’s the ULTIMATE comfort food!
Barb on January 8th, 2010 6:11 pm
Ha! Good question on a frickin’ cold northern Canada night! Has to be a carb for me. Bread is right up there but since I switched to a GF diet it is tough to find bread with the same texture. Popcorn is likely the best replacement with too much butter and nacho spice! A little bailey’s in the hot chocolate is great on a night like tonight as well.

Too many favorites! I love homemade bread and cookies!
Stephanie's Mommy Brain on January 8th, 2010 7:06 pm
My favorite comfort food is a meal of roast, potatoes, carrots, homemade biscuits and gravy. YUM!
Melynda Hache on January 8th, 2010 7:06 pm
My absolute go to comfort food is Mexican food all the way! Tacos or a green chili burrito with rice and beans. Don’t forget the chips and salsa. A meal like that can make my day no matter what.
Gina on January 8th, 2010 7:21 pm
chicken soup!
Dorcas Swartzentruber on January 8th, 2010 7:23 pm
How neat–I agree with the post above–homemade enchiladas or wet burritos, with chips, salsa, some lettuce and tomato–can’t get better! Unless you add some cheesecake for dessert!
Nadine S on January 8th, 2010 7:24 pm
Macaroni and cheese!
Dawnette Thomas on January 8th, 2010 7:30 pm

Mrs. Pear on January 8th, 2010 8:08 pm
that would be mac and cheese
Angela on January 8th, 2010 8:09 pm
My favorite comfort food is my mom’s mashed potatoes. Yes, starchy, and full of calories (she puts a whole stick of butter in them!!) But here at my house with my boys, breakfast foods rank #1 in comfort-ness: eggs, bacon, biscuits, grits.
Caroline on January 8th, 2010 8:17 pm
I would have to say homemade mac and cheese.
Lynn on January 8th, 2010 8:18 pm
Oh, roast chicken with garlicky mashed potatoes and pan juices!

Michele D on January 8th, 2010 8:59 pm
Snickerdoodle cookies. When we traveled overseas my MIL made some for me to take. It was so nice.
Jackie on January 8th, 2010 9:15 pm
My favorite comfort food is my mom’s potato soup with a nice chunk of french bread! I’m so glad she taught me how to make it. Also a close 2nd is just mashed potatoes as a side dish.

melissa smith on January 8th, 2010 9:56 pm
mac and cheese – the very buttery, creamy home-made kind.
Ginny on January 8th, 2010 9:59 pm
That’s a difficult question! Tonight the answer is pizza. Pizza Hut’s “Chicken Supreme” is one of my absolute favorites, even though I don’t get it very often.
Mary on January 8th, 2010 10:10 pm
I love to make Chicken Pot Pie from scratch on these cold winter days. It hits the spot!
Susanne on January 8th, 2010 10:12 pm
It’s a toss up between homemade soups and pizza. I could eat either anytime.
Melissa on January 8th, 2010 10:20 pm
Mashed potatoes and gravy with corn, not mixed together, well, that would taste good too
Kim F on January 8th, 2010 10:45 pm

Anything I don’t have to cook…
Shanita on January 9th, 2010 4:44 am
That’s simple: my favorite comfort food is chicken and dumplings! I was so proud when I learned how to make them myself. Not as tasty as my mom’s but mine will do!
Laurie on January 9th, 2010 4:48 am
Since I was a little girl, I always loved having a hot bowl of tomato soup and a grill cheese sandwich. There was something about this combination that still is so comforting on cold, January night.
Melanie Tiner on January 9th, 2010 5:02 am
I have so many comfort foods that it is hard to choose just one. I would have to say anything chocolate usually does the trick!
Ashley G. on January 9th, 2010 5:11 am
I really love a creamy baked potato soup in the winter. I love having a grilled cheese sandwich to go with it.
kathleen on January 9th, 2010 5:14 am
mine would be meatloaf and baked potatoes. yummy!
Kelly Holmes on January 9th, 2010 5:17 am
At this point in my life Chocolate has become my comfort food, again. I didn’t crave this for a long time and now it has started back up. Any kind, chocolate, brownies, cakes, cookies, etc. It makes me feel even a little better that Dr. Oz has said that chocolate is good for you.
Carol P. on January 9th, 2010 5:30 am
Taco soup comforts me on these cold days!
Heather on January 9th, 2010 5:31 am
My favorite comfort food is lasagna, but, I’ve “healthified” the recipe and have it on a regular basis.
Haley D. on January 9th, 2010 5:41 am
Chicken cooked with cream of mushroom soup and rice is something I associate with my mother and comfort! If I’m not feeling well, though, give me soup and a grilled cheese. Thanks for the chance to win!
Connie on January 9th, 2010 5:58 am
a great cup of coffee always feels great

Alison on January 9th, 2010 6:18 am
When I’m sick, all I want is McDonald’s.
But comfort food for a cold, winter’s day is soup with biscuits or a nice, crusty loaf of bread. Mmmmm!
Candy on January 9th, 2010 6:19 am
It is something I created when I was a kid. I mix together the following four: mashed potatoes, corn (creamed is best), a big squeeze of ketchup, and a dab of margarine/butter. It may sound and look gross but to this day it is my all time favorite comfort food.
Toni W on January 9th, 2010 6:24 am
My favorite comfort food is chili.
Hope on January 9th, 2010 6:35 am
My favorite comfort food is my mom’s homemade macaroni and cheese. It just can’t be beat. Of course it is not weight watcher friendly but when you need comfort you really aren’t thinking about calories. Thanks for letting us know about the great book.
Allison C on January 9th, 2010 6:36 am
I love homemade bread and tomato soup!!! Yum!!

My favorite comfort food is brownie sundaes or really any dessert that involves chocolate.
Jenny on January 9th, 2010 7:32 am
That’s funny – I read that as “what is your favorite color!” Wondered what green had to do with Erin’s book.
Fresh from the oven bread, with the butter melting on it. In it’s place would be garlic bread.
Randa on January 9th, 2010 7:36 am
My favorite comfort food is PIZZA! I know that northern BC has some expensive groceries (not to mention the produce is terrible as well).
Camilla on January 9th, 2010 7:49 am

Amanda on January 9th, 2010 8:04 am
Spaghetti has long been my comfort food after a long day, or when I’m feeling under the weather.

Suzanne E on January 9th, 2010 8:26 am
My favorite comfort food is Macaroni & Cheese casserole. My grandmother made it all the time and it was always so yummy. I try to make it too but don’t think it is as good as hers.
Cindy on January 9th, 2010 8:28 am
Just about any kind of casserole is my comfort food but Mac ‘n Cheese is especially cozy!
Paula on January 9th, 2010 8:29 am
I was wondering how that cookbook translated to Canada. I’m in north eastern Ontario and am so ‘jealous’ of the food savings of the girls in the States.
Comfort food would be a good thick beef stew and fresh (still warm) bread.
Mindy on January 9th, 2010 8:29 am
Teriyaki Burger w/ Grilled Pineapple, fries w/ranch.

Sweetpeas on January 9th, 2010 9:36 am
Homemade mac & cheese, YUM!
Amy Bridges on January 9th, 2010 9:39 am
My favorite comfort food is butternut squash risotto. Sound fancy and expensive, but it’s easy and cheap! Start with just a couple of pieces of bacon, a half an onion, roast the butternut squash with a little salt and pepper, and cook the risotto for a half an hour. Add a half cup white wine and/or chicken stock for more flavor, and the whole thing comes in at under $10 — depending on the price of the squash, it could be under $5!
Erin on January 9th, 2010 9:45 am
tomato soup with grill cheese… no pickles
Michelle on January 9th, 2010 9:49 am

A big bowl of spicy chicken pasta!
Sheena on January 9th, 2010 10:16 am
My favorite comfort food is oatmeal on the stove. It sounds healthy but it is really cookie dough. I love it all warm and sweet.
Kym on January 9th, 2010 10:19 am
Cream of Tomato Soup and grilled cheese sandwich or Carrot cake without nuts… Ugh.. reading all those comments made me HUNGRY.. off to cook something YUMMY! Think homemade cookies which come in third place for favorite comfort food (don’t have the ingredients for the other two!)
Amy Lapain on January 9th, 2010 10:21 am
Favo… Mashed potatoes!!!! no gravy…just lots of butter
Jen on January 9th, 2010 10:27 am

It may sound strange…but my comfort food is bean and cheese nachos. So yummy!!!
Glory on January 9th, 2010 10:42 am
Definitely Fried Chicken from a local chain of restaurants around here called “Babes.” They serve everything family style and the chicken is so juicy and so crispy. They also have melt in your mouth biscuits there. I am hungry just writing about it.
Johanna on January 9th, 2010 10:46 am
My favorite comfort food is steak and stout pie with mash potatoes and gravy. (Recipe by Christine Cushing ). Foodnetwork.ca. Delish I use a preformed pie crust. Saves time.
Laura on January 9th, 2010 11:03 am
It has always been soup. When I was a little girl, my mom would make me Campbell’s tomato soup, always with milk. No matter how sick I might be, I could always eat that and know that I was being taken care of. As a young adult, I lived next door to my aunt, who would make a fabulous vegetable soup on rainy days. She would always call me to come over and give me a big steaming bowl after a long day at work. Now, as a wife and mother, if I am sick or overwhelmed, my sweet husband makes mac-n-cheese for the kids and orders us chinese food so I don’t have to cook. He gets me the large won-ton soup with crispy fried won ton skins on the side. For me, soup is always a gesture of caring and is my total comfort food!
Lorina on January 9th, 2010 11:06 am
My mom’s potato, ham & chesse casserol. . . mmmmmm!
Jacquie Olsen on January 9th, 2010 11:22 am
My favorite comfort food is, I am embarrassed to say, a large glass of milk with chocolate chip or peanut butter cookies. It just doesn’t get much better than that. I wish I didn’t love sweets so much.
But they make me happy.
Beth G. on January 9th, 2010 11:32 am
My favorite comfort food is a big bowl of THEATER popcorn with lots of butter and a diet pepsi. I actually like d.p. better but it does help with the butter quantity

A little strange, I know. Lol I’d say espresso, but it isn’t really a food…
Paula on January 9th, 2010 12:48 pm
Meatloaf and mashed potatoes sounds really good right now! oh and I agree with Tina, I LOVE peppermint ice cream

Kiy on January 9th, 2010 6:04 pm
I’d love to tell you it’s a nice gorgeous salad (which I really do love) but in reality … it’s more like mashed potatoes with real butter, mac and cheese (homemade!) or a nice think and chunky soup. Okay, fine! It’s really ice cream.
Sue Barnes on January 9th, 2010 6:19 pm
A friend of mine just got this cookbook for Christmas & loves it. Two ‘comfort food’ meals in our house are: Tomato soup and Toasted Cheese Sandwiches made with Garlic Bread. And Meatloaf, Dirty-Mashed Potatoes & Green Beans.

Becca on January 9th, 2010 6:56 pm
It’s funny, because my favorite comfort food is related to the giveaway. It is chicken cacciatore.
I made Cinnamon Chicken yesterday, using Erin’s recipe, which she modified for the crock pot (and to be under $5) from a recipe by Cat Cora. When I finished I noticed it’s very similar to chicken cacciatore. I always thought I couldn’t make it, but now I found an easy and frugal alternative.
Sam on January 9th, 2010 6:56 pm
Cheese! Anything made with cheese, or cheese all by itself! The comforting power of cheese can really only be topped by cheese fries. Mmm…

Pork, Sauerkraut and homemade german potato dumplings. The potato dumplings that my 84yr. old gramma makes where you ring out the raw grated potatos in the flour sack bags. They are so hard to make she couldn’t this year for new years! It’s soooo time consuming!
Cheryl Jaeger on January 9th, 2010 7:14 pm

My favorite comfort food is and has always been Amish style chicken potpie which is more like Southern chicken and rolled dumplings (or Cracker Barrel’s “Dumplins”) than even remotely resembling a pie. Fairly cheap to make and plenty filling!

I love pasta – any kind will do.

When number 4 starts it’s way into the world I’ll be asking her to make it again… it’s just sooo yummy and warm and good!
Ryall on January 10th, 2010 12:48 pm
Corned beef hash and poached eggs, heat the hash in an iron skillet, make some “nests” for the eggs, crack the eggs into the skillet and by the time they are done the hash has a crispy edge that is well, pure and total comfort. probably less than $5 now that I think about it.

My favorite comfort food, being from the south my entire life is a bit pot of beans, warm corn bread with butter melting down the side, and a big glass of iced tea (sweet, of course). Just walking into the kitchen with those smells coming from them is incredible. And you can’t beat the price.

My favorite comfort food is my mother’s stew and biscuits. I ask for it every year as my birthday supper!
Debbie Smith on January 11th, 2010 8:20 pm
Depends on how much comfort I think I need! It’s hard to beat fried chicken and mashed potatoes!
Love to have the book!
Heather on January 11th, 2010 8:53 pm
Pretzels always make me feel better. I pick the salt off with my teeth…oddly relaxing.
Shaunta on January 11th, 2010 9:37 pm

When I think comfort food I think winter so I would say Chicken ‘n’ Dumplings. Hmmm! I think food in general is comforting—that’s probably why I need to be dieting
Teri DeLucca on January 12th, 2010 7:33 am
My favorite comfort food is fried chicken, mac n cheese, mashed potatoes and gravy, corn on cob, squash casserole, and why not throw some ocra in there too! A good ol’ country supper with all the fixins. Of course would HAVE to be followed with peach cobbler for desert! mmm…
After reading the previous comment I will add that chicken and dumplings is a close second!
Kristen S on January 12th, 2010 7:40 am
My favorite comfort food would have to be chicken pot pie… can’t get enough of it!
Sharon K on January 12th, 2010 8:31 am
Ohhhhh…mashed potatoes and sauerkraut! Yummy, and not to expensive to make either.
Great with a pork entree.
Melissa on January 12th, 2010 8:34 am
Anything with chocolate!
Robyn on January 12th, 2010 9:26 am
My favorite comfort food would have to be homemade vanilla pudding. I like to eat it hot off the stove…no time for cooling when I need comfort!
Lynn on January 12th, 2010 9:27 am
My fave comfort food of all time is something my family calls “matomac”. It’s just tomato soup with elbow macaroni. A good friend made it for me at age 13 on a really bad day and ever since it has been my go to comfort food. I’m 36 now and still have it at least a couple times a month. Super easy and super cheap too!
Laura on January 12th, 2010 9:45 am
My favorite comfort food is, believe it or not, S.O.S. It’s a food that most people claim originated with the Army… pretty much a white sauce with chucks of meat (we used dried beef, but I’ve heard of using sausage & beef too), which it then served over toast. Love the stuff. Super cheap. However, I know that some (many) people hate it, so I think I might be in a minority here.

Dani on January 12th, 2010 2:26 pm
My go to comfort food is popcorn. If I want it fast I do the microwave popcorn but if I want the feel of back home, I’ll make it like I always watched my Dad do it on Sunday nights on the stove. The downside, I usually add much more butter than I probably should!
Beth on January 12th, 2010 3:01 pm
My favorite comfort food is sliced mushrooms sauteed in butter and sprinkled with basil. Yum! Either that or Strawberries Romanov.
Jessica on January 12th, 2010 3:34 pm
